Stop Telemarketers
If telemarketers have ever interrupted you at an inopportune time, you may want to consider registering your phone number with the federal Do Not Call list. Simply visit https://www.donotcall.gov/register/Reg.aspx and submit the required information. After 31 days, most telemarketers should stop calling. If they don't you can file a complaint. Note that some organizations (charities, politicians, polltakers, to name a few) are exempt. Your number will be registered for five years. For more information, visit the Do Not Call FAQ.
Now since you don't have telemarketers to worry about, you can spend that time in other more useful ways. At the least you can use that saved 30 seconds to just click.
